dirt Songtext
von emory

i think i can love you kindly
kinder than you love yourself
i want to be in your family
maybe i can be someone else

put my hands under the dirt
pick out from my fingernails
i swore i could move the earth
i swore i could still believe in you


but the river will move
and the old rope swing will wear down
you and i are capable
gentle
now

i think i could be your man
big and tall like in your head
pull me out from heavy sand
put me down into your softer hand

′cause the river will move
and the house we built will wear down
i promise we'll be older soon
warmer
now
